You caught a first glimpse of him at Tales of Festival in Yokohama this weekend, but the latest issue of Jump magazine has the first details on new Tales of Zestiria character Zabida.

Zaveid is a man who hunts down the Hyouma all on his own. A wind element Family of Heaven character, he maintains a jovial demeanor superficially and can be a jokester, but when he gets serious, he has no qualms about picking a fight with even a Doshi like Sorey, making him a dangerous element in his own right and his overall alignment ambiguous.

Given his elemental affinities, he’s said to have some sort of connection to the previously announced Dezel, who’s also a wind element Family of Heaven member, although the specifics remain unknown at this time.

Zaveid uses pistol-like devices as his weapon of choice, although the nature of them is a mystery for now. Standing at 187cm (approximately 6’1″) tall, as we’ve previously mentioned before, Zaveid is voiced by Kenjirou Tsuda and was designed by Minoru Iwamoto.
